GameFAQs Contests

Don't even kid yourself, HaRR! You know you'll be picking Chief in his rematch with Hayabusa next year like everyone else!

It's even MORE important now that 360 ownership is lower!

"Hold on a minute! That testimony stinks!"
"Witness! You can't just say 'Hello' and expect us to get anywhere! I want you to testify!"

I picked Hayabusa this year! Haha, he's not gonna overturn that here with Halo Reach or whatever else they've been releaseing since CoD got serious about leading the FPS-world.

Or Sub-Zero, while we're at it!

If it weren't for Reach, I'd probably pick Felix in a rematch. Golden Sun DS has to count for something!

I might pick Felix in a rematch out of pure bias and stubbornness. You know, the same reason I take Crono to beat any opponent he has the slightest chance of beating.

Dr. Football was not stopped by any of us, and won the Guru Contest.

I really want to see Master Chief vs. Magus though. It would have the biggest day/night swing ever! I am quite serious when I say that Master Chief could turn a 5000 vote lead with the ASV!

Eh, Magus's ASV isn't any worse than Frog's.
---
"So cold. I am always by your side."
"There ain't no gettin' off of this train we on!"

Master Chief could turn 5000 on Frog with the ASV too. He swung 3000 off a 2400 lead in 2004, with lower votals, and when CT's day vote was a lot better than it is now.
---
Dr. Football was not stopped by any of us, and won the Guru Contest.

In a 12 hour match, Chief wouldn't do it. He probably wouldn't have that much of a lead to overturn. I have my doubts about him being able to do it in a 24 hour match, too. Frog's ASV has always been bad, and so has Magus's. CT's and Crono's ASVs are the ones that used to be decent.

I wouldn't put it past him, but people overblow Chief's ASV all the time.
---
"That's crazy. I could never do something like that."
"It's not a question of can or can't. There are some things in life you just do."

The change that occurs when the ASV hits is diluted to perhaps a quarter of its strength in a 12 hour match. Now that I think about it though, Chief's ASV was hurt by the same thing that hurt CT's ASV in 2006- shifting the start time to 12 AM. Chief does very well in the first couple of hours, which makes it harder for him to rise later, whereas before, he was horrible from the start of the match all the way until the ASV.

I think 5000 is reasonable assuming 120,000 votes for the entire match, though. I suppose that's probably too high based on last contest, but it would have seemed normal in 2006. I'd be scared for Magus if he only had a 5000 lead at 3 PM.

Master Chief vs Magus

We had the perfect fourpack of suck with Kefka/Magus, Master Chief/Shadow until Kefka had the nerve to go out and perform decently this year.
---
"The great GF...Bahamut."
"...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..."

Magus was so unbelievably bad last contest, I might take MC in a 24-hour due to my lack of faith in the zealous fellow. Even Frog seems more competitive. Maybe Alucard is a bit stronger than I think, though. (58% against someone who SHOULD excel in a 12-hour match...) You think Kefka could beat Magus now, assuming similar pictures as in Winter '10?

I didn't do much more than glance at each result in the last contest...

---
"Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So...what is a party?"
"Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think."

Damn you, Kefka coming back! That match is still crazy to me.

Oh, I'd definitely take Kefka over Magus based on their performances last contest.

I'd probably take Frog over Magus at this rate.

Maniac64 is a horrible user.

5,000 votes by MC would be a pretty big hurdle. Axel would have been able to pull 4,000 against Frog if the match had been 1v1, and I don't know of MC's Day Vote swing would be that much more. But I wouldn't put anything past Magus at this point!

I'd pick Issac before that game. Chief is so bad now.

Today is the last day of the "Got Console?" polls, because there will be a "Got Milk?" poll tomorrow. Haven't figured out what polls will be coming up for the next few days after tomorrow's poll, assuming re-runs of past polls.

Nice to see a lot of the same faces still populate this topic. Another contest would be nice. Although another contest actually run during the summer season proper would be nice, too.

I voted for 2%, although I never drink it in its normal white form. I always mix 2% milk with one of those hot chocolate packets to make chocolate milk instead.

**** you, Bacon.

I hate milk. Chocolate milk is OK, and I love milkshakes, but plain old milk doesn't do it for me.

Cecil vs. Chief in a night match, would my boy finally win something?

Beginning at 3rd level, a paladin of freedom is immune to compulsion effects.

At this point it's better not to count on the Chief unless he's against a character infamous for bombing (e.g. Magus). So yeah I'd pick Cecil > MC.

On the other hand Kefka redeemed himself against a similar character, and World of Warcraft is likely stronger than Halo on this site, so Magus probably beats MC now.

Kefka had Dissidia to thank. Also, WoW didn't beat Halo 2 by much and I don't know if barely beating the GTA-series is worth the 45% on the Castlevania-series Halo got pre-Halo 3.

Well, I'd take Knuckles to beat Master Chief, and Cecil possibly could've won that match against him this year if it had been a night match.

But regardless, Chief, Magus, and Shadow are the three characters I will never pick to win a debatable match until they prove otherwise. Kefka was on that list, but...he proved otherwise.

It's very unlikely that Cecil would have won a night match.

Well, it would've been unlikely, I admit, but a small possibility.

Nah, Cecil winning a night match was pretty likely, Knuckles only won the day match 52-48. Now a 24-match, I agree, that would have been unlikely.
---
Dr. Football was not stopped by any of us, and won the Guru Contest.

I never got why people said back during the last contest that Cecil and Zidane could have won 24 hour matches.

Taking Cecil Vs. Knuckles for example, considering the fact that a large chunk of the people who would have voted in the first half voted in the second half, that means in a normal 24 hour match you have to believe that Cecil has around 55% at the 12 PM mark just to break even, and to be honest, I ind this a little hard to believe.

Cecil being able to break 45% on Knuckles in a day match was hard to believe, too!

I'm saying it's hard to believe that there would be such a huge discrepancy in the two halves of the match (especially when the first half still has the morning vote), not that Cecil wouldn't be able to pull out those figures.
---

It would have been possible since Cecil, Zidane, and Ike all have pretty extreme trends. Cecil and Zidane are all night and no day. Ike is all day and no night. Knuckles is a bit more balanced, though obviously more day.

But we're still talking about a 2500-3000 vote swing from day to night, which isn't easy for anyone.
---
"Why must we always choose between certain death and probable death?"
"I'm in an epic battle to the death, FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF!"

Which is also why I still think people who think Missingno would've won a day match against Sephy are crazy, because that's a 5000 vote difference.

If Missingno had full rally power throughout the night, he would have beaten Seph.

Eh, I doubt that. I think Sephiroth was just out of his range one-on-one, regardless of the timeframe.
---
"Hold on a minute! That testimony stinks!"
"Witness! You can't just say 'Hello' and expect us to get anywhere! I want you to testify!"

Don't forget, if Missingno doesn't collapse overnight, and it most certainly *was* a Missingno collapse, all of a sudden he's not bleeding a bunch of votes in the early morning and around noon, because people are bothering to rally since he's in a fight with a chance to win.
